Donald Trump has unveiled his new communications platform, posting a video announcement months after being banned by social media giants Twitter and Facebook.
The video is a short clip announcing the arrival of Trump’s own platform which promises to serve as “a place to speak freely and safely.”
And it has all the dramatics you’d expect from the former President.
“In a time of silence and lies,” captions on the video read over news reports of Twitter’s permanent ban of a man who 75 million people voted for in 2020.
“A beacon of freedom arises. A place to speak freely and safely,” it continues. “Straight from the Desk of Donald J. Trump.”
While promising a place to speak freely, the site appears to be more of a blog in its current form, containing posts of Trump’s past media statements. It does not, as of yet, feature an area for supporters or followers to comment.

It had been speculated for months that Trump may attempt to launch his own social media platform as a means to combat bans from sites like Twitter and Facebook.
This site doesn’t address that.
Jason Miller, a senior adviser to Trump, assures fans that, “We’ll have additional information coming on that front in the very near future.”
Facebook announced Wednesday that they are upholding Trump’s ban on their platform. Twitter already permanently banned the former President.
Ironically, posts on the “From the Desk of Donald J. Trump” communications platform have prominent share buttons for both big tech companies.
The new site does allow the President to keep in touch with supporters who may not have signed up for his email list, where these statements have already been delivered.

There needs to be a stronger call for free speech in this country and the former President needs to lead the way.
A concerted effort by the left to silence conservatives has been unrelenting.
Black Lives Matter, a group more closely aligned with the far-left politically, just released a list of demands in which they call on Trump to be “permanently” banned from “all digital media platforms.”
“Trump has always used his digital media platforms recklessly and irresponsibly to spread lies and disinformation,” their demand list reads. “He must be stopped from encouraging his mob and further endangering our communities.”
Last week, employees at book publisher Simon & Schuster filed a petition demanding the company cut ties with authors associated with the previous administration.
The petition requests that the publisher avoid treating “the Trump administration as a ‘normal’ chapter in American history.”
Conservatives should have listened when Big Tech was censoring less savory individuals like Alex Jones and Milo Yiannopoulos.
Instead of having the attitude that, ‘Well, this is okay because they’re not good people,’ conservatives should have recognized that fascists on the left were never going to let up once the floodgates opened.
They won’t stop until speech from conservatives – even the former President of the United States – is permanently banned in America.
Now is the time to support and share the sources you trust.

We need President Trump now more than ever. In just a few short months, the Dems who are controlling the senile Biden ( Susan Rice, Obama, China et al) have done so much damage to this last free country on earth. Wake up DEM voters...can you see the damage you voted for???
Awesome!
It's just a matter of time...tick..tock tick...tock..
So happy we can hear our President Trump again. Truth matters. Even if the elite population and their communists agenda thinks not. Why to go TRUMP.
If not longer,depending on how the democrats fix the voting system
What a bunch of horsesh%t. Black lives don’t matter. All lives matter. Get over it.
The democrat party has become nothing, if not sick and ugly.
BLM SHOULD BE BANNED NOT PRESIDENT TRUMP.
Stick to "amuse" or "insult", because you're lousy at "informing", pal.
TG Trump is trying his best not to let the Lame Brains turn this into a dictator run country - whats gonna happen when china takes over - oh thats right it already has and the basement dwellers and Hollyweirdos are so wrapped up in themselves and what Noun a person should be called they don't even take on minute in a year to thank our veterans current and past for their freedoms - well guess what pretty soon we will not have a military to protect your lousy butts anymore and thats when the real crying will begin and of course it will again be Trumps fault because they cannot see the forest thru the trees
